Chapter 4: The Commissioning of the Night

For School City,Ten o'clock at night is relatively late.。 Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Originally, the city was a terminal for trains and buses, and schools had a deadline to leave, and shops in each ward closed at this time, leaving only shops that felt like they were for adults.

There are guards patrolling the streets, including teachers and security guards, and as long as they don't go out with the awareness of being tutored, most students stay in the dormitories.

On the other hand,The night of the school city is the time when the bad teenagers are concentrated.,If the average student accidentally walks out,It's easy to get involved in a little trouble.。

Aikawa walked without scruples on a night like this.

"Hiccup. Eat a little too much, satisfied. ”

He had just come out of a Japanese-style beef hot pot restaurant, and after saying goodbye to his classmates, he was now on his way back to his dormitory. I had to go around to a convenience store on the way, so I didn't follow the boys who lived in the dormitory.

Aikawa raised his head and let the starry sky come into view.

(War...... ? )

A conversation with Fukiyo during the lunch break came to mind.

- Huh?

Why, don't you know?

I've always relied on my own unique intelligence network to get information...... What's going on?

Or do you say something inexplicable...... It is said that our school seems to have clashed with some religious group, but there have been demonstrations and protests around the world.

Hey~~~

Looks like we're going to lose.

…………

This is the end of the memories.

(…… It's completely different from a year ago. )

At this time, Aikawa's cell phone rang.

"Who, could it be that Shangjo lost the dormitory key?"

Muttering about the fact that it was highly likely to happen, Aikawa looked at the phone screen.

Numbers you don't recognize.

“…………”

Aikawa pressed the call button.

First meeting, contractor.

A polite voice came out of the phone.

I have a commission for you here, can you accept it?

"Huh?"

It's about Ms. Mirei Misaka. That being said, you won't be able to understand just by name.

"What the happened to Misaka?"

As soon as the words fell.

Boom!!

The corner of the street was lit red by the sudden explosion.

The distance was very long, and the sound arrived a few seconds later than the light.

Aikawa kept his phone to his ear and turned that way.

Near the horizon, almost obscured by countless tall buildings, unnatural light swayed.

Ms. Misaka submitted an application to use the Cliff University Resource Center, which was attacked. She is the only user, and it has been confirmed that several private guards are present, but they are still tolerated. All the main data is backed up on the network, so there is no need to worry about loss.

"Attack? Misaka is a normal person. ”

Ordinary people are also in danger of ordinary people. I just said that I want to tell you about the commission, so let's get to the point.

The voice on the phone was flat.

Recycling movement, do you know the word?

"Recently, the class has been talking about things that because I think the school city will become a battlefield.,Parents of each student want to bring their children back?"

Don't you think that this way of thinking itself is a foolish strategy that has not thought about the matter of homeland defense at all? If a large number of students leave the school city,There will be a lot of troubles.。

"Hmph~~"

Aikawa said with an attitude that it was not his business.

"And then, does that have anything to do with Misaka's connection?"

Ms. Mirei Misaka has a position of guardian representation in the recycling movement. She didn't mean to cause our problems, but she still bothered us even by accident...... Therefore, it was decided to pinch off the sprouts first.

“…………”

Although we also paid for skillout this time, the method over there was really bad. It's dangerous to go out in a group just because of this level of problem, but it's not okay if you don't deal with it. So you are named above, the strongest contractor of mankind. If it's yours, even if it's just there now, you can improve your score a bit. And it also pays a lot, it's a job that only earns and doesn't lose money.

“…………”

How, do you want to participate?

--------------------

"Get out. ”

At the same moment, the party who also received the same commission refused without thinking about it.

"Skillout? How could I hang out with those incompetent bastards! Besides, there was no need to bow down to a guy like you for convenience, and I had a way to pay it back. ”

As he spoke, he checked the short necklace-shaped electrodes on his lower neck.

Although it was a little rough during the day, there was still a surplus of batteries.

So if it's just a group of skillouts, as long as it's there, it's fine.

He went to save Mirei Misaka.

That's right. If you don't want to work, please go home early.

The other end of the phone said this with some frustration.

Until you are willing to work, leave your abilities to us.

The electrodes on the neck made a strange electronic sound.

(What...... ?!)

One party hurriedly reached out to press the switch, but there was no response. It only makes a clicking sound, but it is not possible to switch from normal mode to mode that uses abilities.

You've done a lot of tricks on the electrodes!!

Hey, do you have something important that you have to use your abilities?

He slurred his tongue.

When the group's technical department was receiving physical improvements, the short necklace electrodes were temporarily recovered, and it was at that time that they manipulated the internal structure, presumably installing a safety device that allows the person on the other side of the phone to operate freely from a distance.

Don't take our word for it.

The meaning of what Motoharu Tsuchigomon said in the morning was felt at this time.

Then, if you don't have a problem, I'll hang up first. Good night, one side passes.

The phone was cut off.

One side snorted boredly.

(Well, in that case, I'm more motivated.) )

There was a menacing light in his eyes.

One party gritted his teeth and put the phone back in his pocket.

(...... All you can use is a pistol and fifty rounds of ammunition, and you don't know the number, armament, and combat power of the skillout, can you bring that guy out on that alone?)

While clenching his big teeth, he walked with a cane while passing.

Mikoto Misaka's mother.

Although she has no obligation to interfere in that guy's life, she is not unrelated to that little ghost (Kamijo Dangma). For those with mass-produced abilities, there is no such thing as blood relatives, and Meiling shouldn't know that there are these small lives that have been created. But, even so, Meiling still has a connection with that little ghost.

I'm afraid that these two people will not have the opportunity to contact each other in their lives, and they will only feel troubled when they do, but this is not a good reason for her not to save her. Probably this is something that cannot be lost, even if they don't know anything about each other.

One side is a villain.

However, he did not set limits on what he was a villain. He put aside the boring prerequisites that he couldn't save people because he was a wicked person, or because he couldn't follow the right path because he wasn't a good person.

(Next...... )

Coming to the main road and staring at the headlights of a taxi wandering in search of a drunk guest, the strongest superpower (level 5) in the school city floated a faint smile.

(Pretending to be serious, it's not that you're doing something tasteless.) Just use the most unpopular method to save people, no matter what, I will try my best to save it. )
